Safety features of your vehicle
When returning the rear seatbacks to
the upright position, remember to
return the rear shoulder belts to their
proper position.
CAUTION - Damaging
rear seat belt buckles
When you fold the rear seat-
back, insert the buckle between
the rear seatback and cushion.
Doing so can prevent the buckle
from being damaged by the rear
seatback.
WARNING - Cargo loading
Make sure the engine is off, the
automatic transaxle is in P (Park)
and the parking brake is secure-
ly applied whenever loading or
unloading cargo. Failure to take
these steps may allow the vehi-
cle to move if the shift lever is
inadvertently moved to another
position.
WARNING - Cargo
Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be
properly secured and may hit
vehicle occupants in a collision.
WARNING
Unless the driver's position is
properly set according to the
driver's physical figure, do not
fold the rear seat. It may
increase bodily injuries in a
sudden stop or collision.
WARNING - Objects
Objects carried on the folded
down seatback should not
extend higher than the top of
the front seatbacks. This could
allow cargo to slide forward and
cause injury or damage during
sudden stops.
WARNING - Rear
Seatback
When returning the rear seat to
the upright position:
Be careful not to damage the
seat belt webbing or buckle.
Ensure the seatback is com-
pletely locked into its upright
position by pushing on the
top of the seatback.
Failure to adhere to any of
these instructions could
result in serious injury or
death in the event of a crash.
